Anyone using Nosler 223 Rem brass? A friend gave me a box he didn't need. I wonder why in the world does Nosler cut them .005" shorter than SAAMI Minimum Case Length (not trim-to length - minimum case length)?
Yes, I called Nosler, and couldn't get an answer, just "We haven't heard any other complaints, sir. Don't worry, they're safe to use that way. Just seat your bullets deeper."
Gee, thanks mister!
The 223 neck is short enough as it is, even at max case length. I run mine as long as I can safely leave them, as determined by my Sinclair chamber length gauge.
Anyway, I gave them back to my friend.
Just blowing off steam.
